A Reception Venue Surrounded by the Greenery of Sicily
Maniero Ricevimenti is a historic estate that offers a charming setting surrounded by nature. Located in a prime position, encircled by a vast park with centuries-old trees and blooming gardens, Maniero embodies the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comfort. Its panoramic terraces, overlooking the majestic Mount Etna, provide a breathtaking view, creating the perfect atmosphere for a dream reception.
Whether it's a wedding, an anniversary, or a ceremony, the beauty of the surrounding landscape lends a fairytale quality to every event. The expansive green spaces are ideal for hosting an outdoor reception, while the elegant indoor halls provide the perfect solution in case of uncertain weather conditions, ensuring the celebration continues seamlessly without any compromise.
The Perfect Blend of Elegance and Comfort
The strength of Maniero Ricevimenti lies in its ability to blend refined elegance with maximum comfort. The indoor spaces, characterized by sophisticated and tasteful decoration, maintain an intimate and welcoming atmosphere, even for larger events. The halls are tastefully furnished, featuring architectural details that recall Sicilian tradition while catering to more modern tastes.
Every detail is carefully considered to create an environment where guests feel at ease without sacrificing the beauty of the venue. Attention to comfort is evident in the climate control of the halls, ensuring a pleasant temperature throughout both warm and cooler months, and in the layout of the furnishings, designed to offer maximum comfort and freedom of movement at all times.
An Enchanted Park for an Outdoor Reception
One of the aspects that makes Maniero Ricevimenti truly unique is its beautiful park. This expansive, well-kept space is ideal for those who want to host an outdoor reception, surrounded by the greenery and natural beauty of Sicily. The centuries-old trees in the park provide natural shade during the hottest days, making the environment cool and pleasant—perfect for a daytime reception.
The Maniero's park is also the perfect setting for the ceremony itself. Imagine saying your "I do" beneath an arch of flowers, with the sun filtering through the leaves of the trees and Mount Etna as your backdrop. Every corner of the garden can be personalized with decorations, flowers, and lights, making the event unique and perfectly tailored to the couple's style.
Getting Married at Maniero: The Option of a Civil Ceremony On-Site
Another significant advantage of Maniero Ricevimenti is the ability to hold a civil ceremony directly on-site, as the venue is recognized as a Casa Comunale. This means that couples can legally celebrate their union without having to switch locations between the ceremony and reception. This convenience not only simplifies the day and reduces stress but also adds a sense of continuity to the entire celebration, allowing guests to enjoy every moment without interruptions or the need to move.
The civil ceremony can be held outdoors, in one of the most picturesque spots in the park, or indoors, in the elegant halls of the Maniero, depending on the couple's preferences and weather conditions. This flexibility makes Maniero one of the most sought-after venues for those who wish for a wedding that combines practicality with emotion.

The wedding day is filled with special moments, and the arrival of the bride and groom is certainly one of the most exciting. At Maniero Ricevimenti, this moment can be made even more spectacular with the use of a Porsche Panamera, available exclusively for the couple. Elegant, luxurious, and sporty, this vehicle adds a touch of glamour to the couple's entrance, making them feel like true protagonists of their fairytale.
